Indeed it does, although this is already a pretty interesting camera.

Speaking of which, is there potential for the Pen to be offered via Poon?

Two or three lights, any lens on a light-tight box are sufficient for the realisation of the most convincing image. Man Ray 1935.

Wow, there is a name I havent seen in a long while. My film SLR is a Cosina and, to be honest, I never really knew who they were.

Cosina were the manufacturers (under licence) of the Nikon FM10 and FE10. They are today the manufacturer of the Voigtländer Bessa range of cameras and all of the present manual Carl Zeiss lenses. Add to this a vast number of lenses produced for major camera companies under OEM agreements.
